Golfer Reviews
Great Challenge for the Purest
1st time playing here in over 8 years! Most challenging 9 you will ever play. No Cliche either
You will need all your clubs except the hybrid. It is important to club down with wind at your back and definitely club up hitting into the winds. Ground is hard as pavement and ball will carry further then you expect or desire. Be conservative at times. As ball will slide to the right slope and off the edge of holes 1-2 & 10-11. Greens are emaculately challenging. Humble play makes a stronger and enriched golfer.!
challenging fun course
Gleneagles is a challenging fun course. .
It has many hilly long holes.
the scenery is wonderful and the holes are interesting.
Thanks for the great review phillylu24. We liked your description "hilly long holes..." and "fun". Gleneagles, it's golf like no other.
Thanks for the FIVE STAR review! We are especially proud of the "EXCELLENT" rating for staff friendliness. We figure, if you made it to Gleneagles, you should be greeted as a friend.
Worst course ever
The drunk bartender checks you in and he’s completely rude. They didn’t have carts available, yet course was empty! It’s located in the most seedy neighborhood I’ve ever seen. It would make a better landfill than a golf course, seriously pathetic. Wasted two hours of my life.
Not much we can say about this review other than they're not from around here.
Hidden Gem
The best 9 hole course in SF. Amazing layout with tricky greens, and fun course overall.
Thank you for the FIVE STAR review! We are so glad you enjoyed this golf course as much as we do.
Thank you for the FIVE STAR review!! We hope to see you again.
Not for the Faint of Heart....
This is Not an easy course! Hilly surroundings make for shot selection and accuracacy a most on many holes-you can hit the fairway, only to have it roll off to the edge. Mature trees line all fairways and can easily come into play. Fairway conditions are average at best, but the greens are almost perfectly good! The greens are what make this course, they are fast, smooth, and takes some course knowledge.
This is a true 9 hole golf course; 6 par 4's, 2 par 3's and 1 par 5. The hilly conditions make it play longer, and can be a tough walk(be prepared).
Pace of play has always been good, because the majority of players are regulars...newbies be warned, this is NOT for beginners...being able to hit straight is a MOST.

Thank you for the great FOUR STAR review. You obviously know the game of golf as you accurately and without varnish explained what Gleneagles is all about. We know that we're a little scruffy but that's what makes this place such a surprise when you show up and just get whipsawed by the confines. Local tip: all putts break towards the Cow Palace--unless they don't.
Average golfer
The tee boxes are less than desirable, the fairways need help as well and the greens are like putting on Pool tables. Its amazing that I can come here and shoot a 54 with 24 putts and the next day go to an average 18 hole course and shoot an 85 with average conditions. Sorry but this is not the Hidden Jewal spoken about in the press.
Ok, just want to focus on this reviewer's description of our greens "are like putting on Pool tables."
Thank you very much.
Tough course
I thought it was gonna be easy to beat, I was totally beaten!
Friendly staff
Love this place. Very friendly staff. My hubby and I enjoyed our time there this afternoon.
Bring every club you have!
When I first got to the course I asked a guy next to me in the parking lot if I needed to bring my driver and he said bring every club you have and more!
The course is very hilly and challenging and plays very long. Since you will be walking you will get a very good workout.
Hidden Gem
Course is in improving shape-fairways, greens are outstanding, true fast and tough. Not an easy track by any means, whether playing from blue tees or yellows (2nd set of tee boxes to make an interesting 18 out of this 9 hole course). Well worth visiting regularly. Staff is helpful and friendly even if you’re not a regular

Thanks for the FIVE STAR review. You pretty much wrote the review better than we could.
Ryan-- your review is spot on for Gleneagles "no cliche either", especially the part of "you will need all your clubs...". Some people see nine hole courses and think, "oh, short par 3s". NOT.
Hit your driver if you dare and be ready to reach the green in two on some holes that look and feel like par 5s. So well designed, the course is sneaky long without you even knowing it--until you do. Finally, "humble play makes a stronger and enriched golfer." All true.
